Challenge #44--BLESSINGS...Midway

Hello everyone! It is time to get on with the midway for Challenge #44. The theme for this challenge is BLESSINGS. This time of year blessings abound; so, it is the perfect month to create a card and
show those around you how truly blessed you are to have them in your life.

Let's see how the team has interpreted this concept as we get on with our midway!

Here are the watermarks and links for the wonderful images that the team worked with for the midway.

To help inspire you down the path of BLESSINGS, check out the
wonderful
projects most of my Design Team had the opportunity to create. Clicking on
the team members' name will take you to their blog where you can check
out the details for their inspirational creations...

So if you haven't entered already, what are you waiting for? Create a project and/or post that is
positive AND relates to the idea of blessings, provide an explanation of how your
project and/or post relates to the theme somewhere in your post or come
over and leave a comment with the explanation. Easy, peasy! You can enter our latest challenge by clicking HERE.

Also,
I know that the participants would love for you to go and pay them a visit. Remember
we're creating a Path of Positivity to follow one project at a time and
we'd love to see you somewhere on that route even if it is just by leaving a
comment on an entry from someone who has touched you somehow with their project and/or post!

If you are new to this unique challenge, you can find out the impetus
behind why I started it under the 'Introductions' tab and all the details you need to know in order to participate, in the 'Challenge Details' tab (both tabs located at the top of the blog).

LOOKING FOR ANOTHER MOTIVATIONAL QUOTE ON BLESSINGS?

If you need some additional motivation to help inspire you, I've
provided another sentiment on this month's theme (the first is available HERE), free for you to download.

Left click to bring the image up into the lightbox in its full size and then right click and scroll down to 'save as'.

This word art creation is in png format and published at 300 ppi. It is
quite large in order to accommodate different programs that people work
with. If you are a card maker you can always resize it smaller without
distorting the quality.

Additional Credit and Font Information

Design Element
I have used a couple existing design elements from Lisa Glanz (lisaglanz.com),
in the creation of this sentiment. This element was purchased
with an extended commercial use licence as part of a bundle through
Design Cuts (www.designcuts.com).

The first font was free and listed for commercial use. The second font was purchased with extended commercial use licensing. Click on the font
name to take you to a download

Welcome to the Path of Positivity!

Hello everyone! My name is Lisa. In an effort to create a Path of Positivity for people to follow to bring sunshine to our corner of the blogging world, I have created a new type of challenge. To learn the impetus behind its creation, check out the 'Introduction' tab at the top of this page. You will also find tabs in the same location letting you know about the 'Challenge Details', 'Sponsors & Prize Information' and one for 'Challenge Win Information'.

I hope that you will consider adding your positive creations to the Path and join me in this new adventure! If you'd like to visit me on my personal blog click on the Decosse's Dynamite Doodles Badge below.

If you have any questions you can email me at pathofpositivity [at] gmail [dot] com (don't forget to remove brackets and spaces and replace at with the @ sign and a . for where it says dot. Unfortunately, we have to try to keep those spammers away by camouflaging our email addresses but such is life.

General Rules

While you can find out ALL the information you need to know in order to participate in the challenge by checking out the 'Challenge Details' tab at the top of the page, here is a refresher of the basics.

ALL entries must be positive, inspirational, motivational or encouraging in some nature. Regular types of projects such as birthday cards, or other general type projects/posts will not qualify for the prizes. There MUST be an encouraging or motivational or inspirational vibe to the creation or post.

Each month there will also be an OPTIONAL twist to follow. Twists will strictly be for fun or to help you challenge yourself as a designer. There will be no prize associated with following the twist.

ALL entries that abide by the general rules of the challenge, will be eligible to receive both the Random Prize and the prize for Most Inspirational.

For both prizes, you can make any sort of project you'd like (i.e., scrapbooking page, card, tag, mixed media, digital, etc.). In fact, you don't have to create a project at all. You may just have something to say that is motivational or encouraging in some way .

You can link up a total of three (3) creations.

No backlinking.

Make sure when entering your project that you mention The Path of Positivityin your post with a link back to this blog.

Please remember to link directly to your blog post where we can see your creation, and not just the generic link to your blog.
